Grassland
Somewhere east of Hawaii, there is a tiny island, isolated in the warm Pacific waters. Some hills, several ponds and streams, a few trees, and 1,000,000 square meters of grass. The island remained uninhabited (except for a multitude of insects), until one day recently, a large wooden crate smashed against the rocky beach, releasing 100 pairs of rabbits. With plenty of food (rabbits love grass) and no predators, the rabbit population thrived.
How much time will elapse before the island is overrun with rabbits?
Your assignment is to model the ecology of Grassland Island.
